"Broken Godhead?" Andre murmured, looking at the black dagger with a strong desire in his eyes.
It was a desire that came from his body's instinct, as if he would be invincible after absorbing the dagger.
Andre stared at the dagger intently and slowly approached it.
Andre's abnormality was caught by Ryan and Lucifer. Ryan immediately stepped forward and pressed Andre's shoulder. A mind-clearing technique instantly spread throughout Andre's body, making Andre's vision clear again.
"Thank you, young master." Andre came back to his senses and nodded to Ryan.
His tone was solemn, and he was still frightened, not daring to look at the dagger again.
He turned his back to avoid the dagger from appearing in his sight, and felt a strong fear of the dagger in his heart.
A stream of shadow energy surged out of Lucifer's hand and surrounded the dagger, barely blocking the aura emitted by the black dagger, but the anomaly it produced still existed in the secret realm.
Looking at the pitch-black dagger, the ancient book in Ryan's mind glowed faintly, which made Ryan's heart palpitate, but he was not bewitched like Andre.
Lucifer began to explain to Ryan.
"Master, let me tell you about this broken godhood."
"The Broken Godhead is the product of a god's fall. It is the most core thing in a god's body."
"Speaking of shattered godhood... we have to talk about the strength of the continent."
Lucifer smiled and asked Ryan a question.
"Master, do you know why the strongest people in both the Soltis continent and the Dark Realm are all at the seventh level?" Lucifer asked with a smile.
Ryan shook his head and said, "Why?"
Lucifer began to explain.
"According to common sense, the sixth level is actually the strongest in Soltis Continent."
"But... any intelligent life form will inevitably harbor greedy thoughts, just like human greed, a desire to become stronger and stronger."
"After thousands of years, people have finally discovered the opportunity to advance to the seventh level."
"For example: leaders of various factions who achieved the seventh level through 'faith', the leader of the Greed Church who achieved the seventh level through 'demon's blessing', and your father, Lord Ford, who achieved the seventh level through 'great opportunity'..."
"But after reaching the seventh rank, no matter what method one uses, one cannot advance any further... to the so-called eighth-rank demigod. Even my peak seventh-rank original form in the Dark Realm is the same."
"After so many years... I have a rough idea of the requirements for advancement to the eighth-rank demigod."
"What conditions?" Ryan raised his eyebrows.
"Seventh-order peak strength + broken godhead." Lucifer's face was full of solemnity.
Upon hearing this, Ryan nodded in confusion. Is it necessary to pass the Godhead to advance to the eighth level?
Then he looked at Lucifer with some suspicion on his face.
Lucifer...he seemed to want this shattered godhead.
Ryan thought about it and communicated with the book spirit.
"Book Spirit, will this shattered divine nature help restore the ancient book's essence?"
The Book Spirit shook his head and then nodded, "The shattered godhead is not there, but the divine power contained within it is there."
"To what extent can it be recovered?"
"Fifty percent, enough for you to use all skills of level five and below." The book spirit's eyes revealed joy, and even his tone was full of playfulness.
She didn't expect to encounter the shattered godhead of the God of Shadow here.
But then his brows furrowed again. Had all the first-rank gods perished? What on earth had happened in the divine realm?
"Shu Ling, should I keep this broken godhead for now and use it to advance to the seventh level?"
The book spirit didn't respond, so Ryan emphasized his tone.
"Book spirit?"
At this time, the book spirit, who was thinking about the things in the divine world, came back to his senses.
Listening to Ryan's question, Shu Ling frowned slightly.
